> 24 hourI like these. Theyre small and easy to incorporate into all kinds of projects. They are clearly labeled with the appropriate color on the back, since they all look the same when not powered on. All of the colors (my set included red, green, blue, white, and yellow) are bright even at lower voltages. Unfortunately they dont come with any data or documentation, but after a little searching it looks like these are 5v components (although I tested at 3.3v and theyre still bright at that voltage).

> 24 hourA nice selection of colors. I use these for costume clothing. The built in resistor allows you to work with AA batteries.

> 24 hourI knew they were small but boy are they small. I thought the cables for installation came with but I was wrong. I do have the cables needed so I’ll still be able to get the project done. I tested them all prior to using them because it’s something I do with any just received lights. It’s just easier now instead of finding a non working one later. I’m happy with the quality of them and would purchase them again. Four Stars!!!

> 24 hourIm working on a couple of different Lilypad LED projects - a hat and a vest. These are priced right, bright and easy to use. For clothing, conductive thread is the best bet. Im used to the more traditional old-school - use thin wire, solder it to the LEDs and sew the wires in a few spots to keep it in place and pull them through hems and along seams. Conductive thread makes this so much easier. These light up between 2.5 and 5.5 volts (5.5 is the max for Lilypad .) That means that you can power these manually via a USB battery pack.

> 24 hourHaving these extra colors (and I also ordered extra thread) means I can go further on one costume or make one color lighting string on the costume. Its really cool seeing something I made light up!

> 24 hourThese LEDs work well with any electric circuit. We have used them successfully with both our Arduino uno and our lillypad sewable circuits kit. The lights are bright, the colors are pretty intense. The blue and yellow are less intense than the red orange and green. There are 5 each of 5 different colors. They are easy to use individually. A great addition to our STEM station in the garage. I cant wait to see what ideas my kids come up with for these.

> 24 hourI bought these to add to a LilyPad kit I purchased. They work great and are a decent price compared to others I looked at. My daughters and I used them to make light up masks.

> 24 hourI own and operate a few 3D printers as a hobby and one of my pastimes is designing, printing, and assembling 3D printed LED lights. Ive been wanting to try some SMD LEDs on a light but cant bring myself to butcher up one of the many LED strips I have lying around.

> 24 hourI’ve used these for science activities in my classroom. They work perfectly in paper circuits and etextile projects.

> 24 hourThese will come attached but are very easy to break apart. Nice small design with good size pads for easy soldering. These have a built in 150 Ohm resistor (R) so they can be connected directly to a voltage supply.
